Who’s Going To Die If I Kill My Self? / Human
In his performance Human, Emirhan Akin (38.9637° Near, 35.2433° East, 1992) questions the word ‘human’ in order to flee from its inadequate definition and to arrive at a more embodied understanding. For his work Who’s Going To Die If I Kill My Self?, Akin turned the former shooting tunnel of the exhibition space’s basement into an immersive installation. As viewers walked closer to the screen, they stepped on ceramic masks, ultimately crushing them. Akin wrote about his performance: “On the last day of my compulsory military service in Turkey I realized I was nobody. After a month of embodying a toxic-masculine persona, fabricating an additional layer of skin as another sort of camouflage, alongside the military uniform, to survive amongst thousands of men, I lay on the bottom bunk bed asking: who am I?”
